[ Oh God what is this weekend even. ]

Do you like them good looking, too?

[pinwheeled]

I'd rather avoid impropriety if at all possible.

[signatures]

So plain, but not a troll.

[pinwheeled]

Did I say anything to that effect?

[signatures]

One can decipher well enough.

[pinwheeled]

One can also read a little too much into things.

[boutant]

[ Welp. ]

You're going to fire him, then?

[pinwheeled]

Who said anything about firing anybody?

[boutant]

It was implied.

[pinwheeled]

In that case, only time can tell.

[boutant]

You'd have two personal assistants?

[pinwheeled]

If that's what's necessary, I might.

[boutant]

And if it isn't?

[pinwheeled]

Then I guess I'll just have to cut one loose.

[boutant]

So you'll be firing someone.

[pinwheeled]

I might be.

[boutant]

So my point stands.

[ (TROLL) -- just kidding, for the moment at least. ]

how soon and how available?

anon;

[pinwheeled]

Both depend on a number of factors but the odds are leaning towards ASAP.

anon;

[dropkick]

and your problems with your current PA ...nothing to do with how well he actually does his work?

anon;

[pinwheeled]

How well he does his work is an expectation. Not a point in his favor.

anon;

[dropkick]

but according to your requirements/wishes your replacement can, hypothetically, be green as grass and boring as sand...

...this is an improvement?

anon;

[pinwheeled]

Hypothetically, sure. But this hypothetical bland-bones applicant isn't necessarily going to be my top choice.

Read over the list again. Each point is important in its own special way.

anon;

[dropkick]

but you would choose them over your current employee, true? false?

anon;

[pinwheeled]

If they're a top choice?

Obviously.
